PTEN in Immunity.
Article in Current topics in microbiology and immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The tumor suppressor PTEN (Phosphatase and Tensin homolog deleted on Chromosome 10) executes critical biological functions that limit cellular growth and proliferation. PTEN inhibits activation of the proto-oncogenic PI3K pathway and is required during embryogenesis and to suppress tumor formation and cancer progression throughout life. The critical role that PTEN plays in restraining cellular growth has been validated through the generation of a number of animal models whereby PTEN inactivation invariably leads to tumor formation in a cell-autonomous fashion. However, the increasing understanding of the mechanisms through which the immune system contributes to suppressing tumor progression has highlighted how, in a cell non-autonomous fashion, cancer-associated mutations can indirectly enhance oncogenesis by evading immune cell recognition. Here, in light of the essential role of PTEN in the regulation of immune cell development and function, and based on recent findings showing that PTEN loss can promote resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors in various tumor types, we re-evaluate our understanding of the mechanisms through which PTEN functions as a tumor suppressor and postulate that this task is achieved through a combination of cell autonomous and non-autonomous effects. We highlight some of the critical studies that have delineated the functional role of PTEN in immune cell development and blood malignancies and propose new strategies for the treatment of PTEN loss-driven diseases.
